things and things

things i can't get enough of at this point in time include but are not limited to:

hellogiggles

        




pinterest! duh. follow me






            







also...
reality tv. its like i would much rather get overly involved in people's lives on tv than make real life decisions for myself.  its a bit avoidant, i admit, but its working for me right now

lykke li
and the decemberists

hot black coffee and nice earthy teas

                                                                                                   sleeping way too late

re-reading malcolm gladwell. he inspires me to think more.


also, my apartment cannot seem to keep itself together.
 i would think that you might walk in and say to yourself, "man! i bet she's working on something really great right now.  i can't wait to see this project/experiment/writing masterpiece."  false.
things are just a mess.
you would say that because there is just stuff all over the place. like i'm too wrapped up inside my brain to put stuff where it goes.

i keep toying with the idea of moving or not and so i can't seem to get comfortable in my space.
one of my least favorite things is to spend time doing something just to undo it or redo it. so i'd rather live in limbo.
this is a bad idea, everyone.

breakfast

i work at a diner. i get up at 5:30 am.  i help make delicious food for shiny, happy people.  i see a lot of eggs.  my mind wanders from monotony and sleep deprivation. 

here are some thoughts from today:

eggs are honestly bizarre.  no one really thinks about the fact that they come from a chicken's bum hole...and then we eat them. ...well, at least i don't think about it. 

how did the first humans even think eating eggs would be a good idea?
how many raw eggs were eaten before they decided to cook them?
can you imagine that day in the cave?!? seriously awesome. 
and, all the different ways! 

how would you ever decide to whisk them up and coat your bread in them and then cook it and it would be  so yummy?


also on the thought of the first humans, 
who thought to take some beans, roast them, grind them up, hot water over them, and then drink it? coffee. couldn't live without it. 

i sure am glad for all those trial-n-error kids back then. also glad i didn't have to be the one eating the raw eggs first.
